"Could it be him?" Li Feng himself was very surprised.
He had heard of this figure, a Spirit Awakener who had risen early in the Douyi Star Palace, but this person had neither shone particularly bright among the Frontiers or Navigators to beco a leading figure, nor had he participated in any crucial battles.
In Li Feng's opinion, this Gao Huan wasn't even as noticeable as the Martial Saint He Ze.
"Wu Hen, do you know him?" Rat suddenly asked.
"Quite well, he was a playmate of mine when we were younger, and initially, I thought he was an interesting person. But at so point, he developed a habit of pretending to be profound, which gave a sowhat hypocritical impression, so I interacted with him less over ti. What I don't quite understand now is whether he has been an outsider since birth, or if he beca an outsider during his growth. Did this outsider organization descend from the high-dinsional to possess us mortals, like our Awakenings, playing so role amongst our holand, or did they co from another Nuwa God End, assuming a new identity after their own Divine Realm collapsed and founded a mysterious organization within our Divine Realm?" Wu Hen shared his knowledge about Gao Huan.
What he rembered most vividly about Gao Huan was during the downfall stage of the Divine Realm when so dia featured this outstanding Spirit Awakener. At that ti, he was dressed in an Ice Crystal Battle Suit, known as the Ice Phoenix Battle Armor, a superhero who was capable of saving an entire city.
After that, Gao Huan entered the ranks of the Navigators, and there was barely any news about him publicly released, implying that only the Douyi Star Palace would have close contact with him.
"His sister, Gao Yu Yan, often appeared around , and not long ago..." Wu Hen continued to recount his knowledge of Gao Huan, but as he spoke, suddenly seed to realize sothing, and his complexion changed.
"What's wrong?" Li Feng noticed the change in Wu Hen's expression.
"Gao Yu Yan's power has increased drastically recently, and now Gao Huan has resurfaced in our holand. He just murdered Guan Quming to silence him. Coincidentally, Gao Yu Yan took the initiative to propose awakening with , looking for clues left in the Mist Battle Clothing. If Guan Quming was just a subordinate of Gao Huan, a pawn, then I have to reconsider the purpose of Gao Yu Yan's recent power surge and her approach towards , especially since they are siblings." Wu Hen shared his conjecture.
"Now that we've locked onto Gao Huan, everyone associated with him is under suspicion, including those you ntioned before. These outsiders, are they native people from the Nuwa God End who have been possessed by higher-dinsional souls during their growth, or were they born with mories of higher dinsions, with their own missions in our world? Either way, we need to be careful and review everyone around us again to see whether they will help our holand out of dire straits or push us into the furnace of Hell." Li Feng nodded in agreent.
"Where is Gao Yu Yan now?" Rat asked.
"Her true body is in the Patrol Tower. She was originally going to coordinate an awakening with Wang Rui and , aiming to look for the Soul Nesting Wood clues provided by Douyi Star Palace... After I obtained the Yuan You from another Divine Realm, I ca back early. She and Wang Rui should still be on that Ashen Land, where the Yuan You is very rare, and they can only return by ans of extradinsional transfer." Wu Hen explained.
"You think Gao Yu Yan could be Gao Huan's spy planted by your side?" Rat questioned.
"It didn't seem like it at first, but it does now." Wu Hen said.
"Did you use a guest version of virtual awakening, or did you awaken in a soul state?" Rat continued.
"Spirit Awakening." Wu Hen replied.
"They might be aiming for your host body!" Li Feng imdiately drew this conclusion.
"If Gao Yu Yan is spying for Gao Huan, then coordinating an awakening with you serves to send them your awakening location. In your Spirit Awakening state, you lack the support of a Super Tenth Rank Life, which ans you are in a relatively vulnerable form. They dare not attack your true body, but they can target your externally awakened host, killing it just the sa to severely damage your soul!" Rat also grasped the implications, raising his voice several decibels.
Li Feng nodded in agreent.
This possibility was very likely.
Originally, Wu Hen road the Cang Chu Divine Realm as a Desert Dust Life. The outsiders took notice of his rapid evolutionary speed, reaching uncontrollable and unpredictable levels.
Therefore, they exploited Wu Hen's affection for Mingyi, revealing the Star Mark Plan to him, letting him know that if he didn't act, Mingyi could perish in this dangerous plan.
Similarly, they tested Wu Hen's strength through his bets with Cangling. Once they discovered he truly reached a horrifying level, they would carry out the elimination plan.
To eliminate Wu Hen, they had to deceive him into returning.
To eliminate such a formidable entity without alerting gods or ghosts, one must weaken his condition.
No matter how powerful a descendant of Nuwa becos, their physical strength when they possess a Lost One via an awakening is limited to the level of that Lost One.
Just like Wu Hen, as a Super Tenth Rank Life, is invincible within Nuwa God End, let alone with the oppression of Nuwa Law. Within the holand, there's no slightest chance of killing Wu Hen.
The only opportunity would be for Wu Hen to appear in Otherworldly Desert Dust as an Awakener. In Otherworldly Desert Dust, there's no protection of Nuwa Law, and Wu Hen's Super Tenth Rank Physique would be lost. If he's unlucky, he might even awaken in a diseased and crippled body. Even if special soul Divine Skills can be retained, his strength would be significantly reduced... The only difficulty is that awakening is random; even if you specify an area for awakening, you cannot be 100% certain of the other party's location.
And Gao Yu Yan's following provided Gao Huan with a perfect opportunity.
Through Gao Yu Yan, he could pinpoint Wu Hen's location in Desert Dust, identify which Lost One harbors the soul of Wu Hen.
"You saved the remnants of a Nuwa Divine Realm, and the Divine Realm granted you that extrely rare Yuan You from that land, and through this Yuan You, you returned to the holand, even without having ti to make contact with Gao Yu Yan," Li Feng said.
Wu Hen nodded, feeling that he had also been blessed by Nuwa. His good deeds had helped him avoid a potential crisis.
"Their plans have been frustrated. If it were , I'd be so pissed!" Rat exclaid.
"But our opponent is still in the dark, and we're in the light. Even though we're aware of their existence, it's impossible to investigate the backgrounds and actions of several billion people across the globe in detail. Moreover, based on Wu Hen's description of Gao Huan, apart from being a bit quirky during certain phases, Gao Huan shows no signs of being an outsider. In fact, it seems even more challenging than spotting those Awakeners wearing virtual devices discovered by the Desert Dust Clan. Whether they've had high-dinsional mories since the birth of our world or awakened halfway to fulfill so mission, it's hard to speculate unless we can truly capture them," Li Feng said.
"Perhaps we could devise a capturing plan," Wu Hen suggested.
"How do we go about it?" Rat inquired.
"They clearly haven't reached omniscient levels, and even if they are from high dinsions, they must still follow Nuwa Law. Otherwise, they could directly use high-dinsional power to destroy us, so why bother to hide among the navigators, go to great lengths to lead us into those perilous Desert Dust lands?" Wu Hen said.
"And there's no evidence to prove they're from high dinsions. Perhaps they're remnants from other destroyed Divine Realms, who know Otherworldly better than us, clearer about the fate of Nuwa God End, and also possess so advanced knowledge of the Evolution Chain Gates..." Rat agreed.
Though the opponents were mysterious, they were not unbeatable.
What we have is a traitor among the human ranks, a cult with destruction as their ultimate goal. They possess so unknown powers, yet these powers can't break Nuwa's Law, so their actions are also quite cautious. They always play roles that have a certain weight but are not too prominent within the human group, and yet they can invisibly influence the fate of the entire Nuwa God End.
"Maybe they haven't realized I'm back in the Divine Realm. They're still waiting for Gao Yu Yan to send them my coordinates, dispatching elite forces, laying an ambush on my extradition route?" Wu Hen voiced this thought.
"That seems unlikely, they..."
"I think it's very possible. These people have always followed the rules of the navigators, cutting off contact with the inside of the Divine Realm as much as possible. Their knowledge of Wu Hen's whereabouts also cos from informants. And Gao Yu Yan is Gao Huan's informant, plus Gao Yu Yan is still in the midst of awakening, unaware that Wu Hen has returned to the Divine Realm," Li Feng agreed with Wu Hen's view.
"Besides, Gao Huan might still be smug, having set a trap here in advance for the exposed Guan Quming, believing he has completely severed that connection, still hiding high in the clouds," Wu Hen said.
"Their first plan failed, so they will focus more on the second plan," Li Feng said.
"Right, they might not know that the second plan has failed too; they could still be assembling many Black Navigators to besiege Wu Hen's host!" Rat suddenly realized the significance.
They now possessed information their opponents did not — Wu Hen's Death On Law was qualified to contend with high-dinsional insects.
"Should we deploy as well?" Rat suddenly got excited, ready for a fight against the powerful and mysterious enemy!
"No need for a grand mobilization, I can personally escort myself," Wu Hen said with a smile.
